Examines developing countries that are major destination points for international financial flows and foreign direct investment. Emerging markets have become a major influence in the world economy both because of the potential for growth and the downside risks from economic crises. The course uses the new institutional economics to analyze the interplay of political, economic, and business conditions. Institutional economics is a combination of economics, economic history, and political science. Topics covered include the politics of economic reform, drivers of globalization and investment, the informal sector, and relationships of risk and reward.
